I don't think you want the ant jar in your classpath. In fact, I build
on Windows with no CLASSPATH at all, and didn't have any trouble. The
build script sets up the necessary paths.

Subject: Re: POI build not working
Since it doesn't seem as though my entire email was fowarded
I will include it in this reply. I downloaded an extracted
the POI source to a "Java Dev" folder under the "MY
Documents" folder on my Win2K box. I cd'ed to this directory
and called the build batch script which runs fine. When it
prompts me for a target I enter test hit the enter key and
get an error stating that it can't find the
org/apache/tools/ant/BuildException class and that the build
failed. I copied the results from my test in my orignal
email. You can reference this below.
Thanks for your help,
Cliff
Original email below:
I'm getting frustrated with my POI build too. I've been told
it's because I didn't have ant originally and so I downloaded
and installed it. I set the ANT_HOME env variable and put
ANT_HOME\bin in my path. I also put the ant jar file in my
classpath. Whenever I run the test target from the POI build
I get this:
test:
Running org.apache.poi.hpsf.basic.TestBasic
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/tools/ant/BuildException
Exception in thread "main"

Settings\craic0ld\My Documents\Java Dev\work
Note how I've echoed my classpath to make sure that ant.jar
is available. At the start of the build execution it echoes
that it's using a modified classpath set (as I've also
verified) by the build file. It also says it's using Jakarta
Ant version 1.5 alpha. I don't see this refenced in the
modified classpath so where is it finding it? Is it the build
that's hosed up or is it my configuration? What am I doing wrong?

POI builds with the included ant and teh included scripts.
It should be that users CD into the poi dir and run the build script.
What is it you are getting as an error?
